Chapter 586 Lose Public Support
All the seniors of the Shao enterprise soon got the news that Gu Changle was sent to the hospital.
Besides, they were all on tenterhooks as they had been informed by the largest shareholder that there would soon be a board meeting. Now they were waiting anxiously for Shao Tianze to call the shots.
It was not easy for Shao Tianze to make a decision.
He was now looking after Gu Changle in the hospital. Though his secretary told him that the shareholders were all waiting impatiently again and again, she failed to make Shao Tianze return to the company at last.
It made the shareholders bitterly disappointed.
Shao Xue was in the same hospital as Gu Changle.
So after being informed that Gu Changle was sent to the hospital, Shao Xue saw the shareholders waiting anxiously outside the ward when she went to visit Gu Changle.
Seeing Shao Xue, one of the shareholders immediately walked up to her and greeted, “Miss Shao Xue.”
Shao Xue was a bit surprised as the dumpy shareholder was being so polite to her. Thus she replied politely, “Hi! Nice to meet you.”
“Miss Shao, I’m Zhu Wenxi from the shareholders’ meeting.”
Shao Xue nodded, replying, “h.e.l.lo, Mr. Zhu.”
Seeing that Shao Xue was being nice, he began to complain, “Miss Shao, I think you know that the Shao enterprise is now in crisis.”
Shao Xue pressed her lips and played dumb, asking, “Could you tell me what is going on in the Shao enterprise?”
She had been on medical leave as she was injured in the amus.e.m.e.nt park.
Though she had got some news that something bad happened in the Shao enterprise, she didn’t know what exactly happened.
So she asked that shareholder, “I’ve been in the hospital lately, so I don’t know what’s going on in the Shao enterprise. Could you be more specific?”
Zhu Wenxi wanted Shao Xue to bring Shao Tianze out of the ward, so he was more than pleased to tell Shao Xue everything he knew.
“Here is the thing. Someone is trying to purchase Shao’s shares secretly. By now, the person has already got two big shareholders’ shares.”
Shao Xue pretended to be astonished, saying, “What? Are you serious?”
This meant that the Shao enterprise could change hands because of the secret purchasing.
If it happened, the Shao enterprise would be turned upside down.
Hearing Shao Xue’s words, the shareholder immediately began to complain, “Yes. The Shao enterprise was in utter chaos when the news arrived. But Miss Changle went to hospital at this critical moment. We need Chairman Shao to call the shots. Now we are all very anxious as Mr. Shao doesn’t show up.”
Hearing that, Shao Xue pressed her lips, replying, “Calm down. Let me enter the ward and see what’s going on. I’ll talk to you later.”
Seeing that Shao Xue agreed to help them, the shareholder immediately said, “Miss Shao, please tell Chairman Shao about the crisis and let him come out. At this critical moment, only if Chairman Shao comes out to hold the meeting can we feel relieved.”
Shao Xue nodded. Carrying all the shareholders’ hope, Shao Xue tapped on the ward door.
A nurse opened the door.
The nurse knew Shao Xue, so she turned and told Shao Tianze, “Chairman Shao, Miss Shao is here.”
Hearing that, Shao Tianze nodded, replying, “Let her in.”
Getting Shao Tianze’s permission, Shao Xue entered the ward.
As soon as she entered, she saw Gu Changle lying in the hospital bed.
Gu Changle looked very bad and was having oxygen therapy.
Shao Xue walked to her bed, gently asking Shao Tianze, “How is Sister Changle doing?”
“The doctor said that her condition was not very good. It’s been a night, but she still hasn’t come around.”
Hearing Shao Tianze’s words, Shao Xue slightly pressed her lips and then comforted Shao Tianze, “Brother, don’t worry. The good are protected by Heaven. Sister Changle will be all right.”
Hearing Shao Xue’s words, Shao Tianze nodded, replying, “I also hope that Gu Changle will be OK. If anything happens to her, my effort will be in vain.”
In order to let Gu Changle survive, he even acted against medical ethics to kill Gu Changge.
If Gu Changle died now, what would be the point of killing Gu Changge?
He was pondering while Shao Xue continued consoling him. After a short pause, Shao Xue went on, “Brother, some shareholders are waiting for you outside.”
Hearing Shao Xue talking about the old crocks outside, Shao Tianze couldn’t help but frown, “Tell them to stay in the company. They shouldn’t have come here.”
Shao Xue could see that now all Shao Tianze cared about was Gu Changle.
He couldn’t care less about the Shao enterprise at the moment.
She thought of going out like this, but she felt that she should make another attempt. Thus she persuaded again, “Brother, the shareholders said that something big happened to the Shao enterprise and they wanted you to call the shots.”
“What’s the rush? It’s just a shareholders’ meeting. Since the person wanted to hold the meeting, so be it. What’s the big deal?”
Shao Tianze didn’t seem to be worried. However, Shao Xue knew that things must be more complicated.
She pressed her lips and prepared to leave, saying, “OK. I’ll talk to them.”
Shao Tianze didn’t notice when Shao Xue left.
He held Gu Changle’s hands and hoped that she could come around as soon as possible.
After getting out of the ward, Shao Xue was immediately surrounded by the shareholders.
They asked Shao Xue one after another, “How is it? What did Chairman Shao say? When can Chairman Shao come out?”
Seeing that the shareholders were anxious, Shao Xue pressed her lips, replying, “Calm down. My elder brother said that everything would be OK. Don’t worry.”
Hearing Shao Xue’s words, Zhu Wenxi immediately pumped her, “So, did Chairman Shao say when he would come out? It’s such a big event. He can’t just hide from us all the time.”
“Changle is now in ICU and needs care. My elder brother can’t meet you for now. Please understand him.”
The shareholders were about to blow up when hearing Shao Xue’s words.
And Shao Xue knew that she should leave after finis.h.i.+ng her words. It was not necessary for her to stay here.
Therefore, after pa.s.sing on the message to the shareholders, she found an excuse and left the ward.
Several anxiety-ridden shareholders still wanted Shao Xue to enter the ward and persuade Shao Tianze to come out, but Shao Xue left too quickly.
Thus the shareholders could do nothing but wait anxiously outside Gu Changle’s ward.
After Shao Xue left Gu Changle’s ward and entered her own ward, she closed the door and prepared to call Song Yunxuan.
But just at that moment, Shao Xue felt that she might cause trouble if calling Song Yunxuan now. Thus she refrained from calling her.
After Shao Xue put down the phone, she heard that a nurse was knocking at the door and saying to her, “Miss Shao, please open the door. We need to change your dressing now.”
Hearing that it was the nurse’s voice, Shao Xue got up from the bed and went to open the door.
The nurse smiled at Shao Xue and said, “Miss Shao, let’s go. Time for a check-up.”
Shao Xue nodded and followed the nurse.
No sooner had Shao Xue arrived at the pharmacy than she saw that Song Yunxuan walked out from the curtained-off room.
Shao Xue was astonished to see Song Yunxuan here. She walked up to her, asking, “Why are you here?”
Song Yunxuan smiled, replying, “I’ve always wanted to visit you after learning that you were hurt. But considering my special ident.i.ty, I didn’t get the chance. Today, I heard that you need to have your dressing changed, so I came early and waited for you here.”
Even if Song Yunxuan didn’t say it, Shao Xue still understood.
Many doctors in the hospital were on good terms with Song Yunxuan. At the very least, the doctor that let her enter the pharmacy was definitely on good terms with Song Yunxuan.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan was talking to Shao Xue, the woman doctor didn’t urge Shao Xue to undress. Instead, she was preparing the medicine and bandages which would be used to change her dressing.
After calming down, Shao Xue thought of the things that happened in the Shao enterprise recently. Then she asked Song Yunxuan, “Something big happened to the Shao enterprise in the past few days.”
Song Yunxuan nodded, replying, “I know.”
Shao Xue was a bit stupefied by Song Yunxuan’s words. She said, “Are you saying…”
Song Yunxuan nodded, replying, “Yes. I did it.”
Shao Xue felt more astonished. But meanwhile, she felt somewhat surprised.
She remained silent for a while.
She knew that Shao Tianze’s life would be tough if Song Yunxuan became the Shao enterprise’s new president.
And she came to Yuncheng to live with Shao Tianze because she waited for the day to come.
She would wait to see Shao Tianze become dest.i.tute. Then she would expose the thing that he murdered her parents to the police and let him pay the price.
Seeing that Shao Xue had mixed feelings, Song Yunxuan asked her, “Is he still watching Gu Changle by the bed?”
Shao Xue nodded, replying to Song Yunxuan, “Gu Changle is closest to his heart. Now that she is seriously ill, he can’t care less about what is going on in the Shao enterprise. The shareholders are like ants on a hot pan, waiting anxiously outside the ward and wanting to see him. But Shao Tianze showed no inclination to meet them.”
Hearing that, Song Yunxuan gently criticized, “The shareholders must be very disappointed.”
Shao Xue nodded, echoing, “You are right. Many of them have already been disappointed in him.”
Song Yunxuan smiled, saying, “I didn’t expect that Shao Tianze would love Gu Changle this much.”
As Shao Tianze loved Gu Changle this much, the dose Tan Yi gave Gu Changle was not in vain.
The dose let Gu Changle sleep for tens of hours more and made Shao Tianze accompany her during the time.
And it cost him public support.
